There are other versions of this clip available on youtube, mainly from the video made of Johns New York IceDancing show first performed in 1978. Here we see John and JoJo Starbuck as they appeared at the Queens Ice Rink 50th anniversary gala in May 1980. This was the first time we had seen this number in UK. I was lucky enough to be there that night and - despite there being at least 2 other Gold medallists from the recent 1980 Olympics on the programme that evening - it stopped the show!
(And I was there purely due to John's kindness; he had found out a few hours before the show was due to start that a friend and I had not been able to get tickets, so he had gone to the ticket office and told them to hold the first two returns that came back that night for him. That was the kind of man he was).
The following day Tango was on the front page of the London evening paper, with comments from people like Courtney Jones and Betty Callaway saying how groundbreaking the choreography was.
PS I have recently learnt from the producers of the 'Ice King' documentary, that the BBC no longer have this recording - so it's just as well I had recorded it or it would be lost forever!
